This notebook illustrates how confusion and disagreement about ITIL's status as a Knowledge Type and Tool Type is cleared up in a simple way if approached in an architect's perspective, making it more readily understood by Business Decision makers.
The business selects the IT organization as a provider, but that means the organization must be a producer. Production for business has the same four bases today that it always has had. Today's necessary agility must be produced from those bases.
The document discusses an enterprise architecture strategy with five key elements:
1. Customer relationship management and data integration
2. People, process, governance and a technical integration framework
3. Analytics, business intelligence, data quality, and master data management
4. Enterprise performance management with operational and analytical requirements
5. Integration across business processes, locations, applications, and data
When a company invests in ITIL, very often Architecture is not much involved: this is a mistake because there is much overlap, and Architecture can end up side-lined by the ITIL juggernaut. But there are a lot of benefits Architecture can bring to an ITIL-oriented organization.
This slide deck goes a step or two further than the white-papers out there I've found to date in providing some concrete guidance on how to actually integrate Architecture activities into ITIL. The deck uses TOGAF as the reference framework, but the concepts can be applied to any modern Architecture practice, since the discussion focuses on the types of deliverables and activities, which analogously exist in most frameworks.
EA governance is the practice by which enterprise architectures are managed and controlled at an enterprise-wide level. Governance processes should be tailored to the particular environment of the organization, as well as the architectural goals and objectives of that organization, and should never hinder time to market. A centralized governance body can facilitate and drive key functional and architectural decisions across the primary internal stakeholders to ensure that the enterprise architecture addresses customers’ needs.
The presenter has implemented numerous EA governance organizations. As part of a major pharmaceutical distribution company’s corporate-wide SOA adoption program, he adapted the basic governance frameworks such as TOGAF to the organization and the objectives of the SOA adoption program. This session will examine the processes that were used to create an EA Governance organization at a major energy company and lessons learned at this company, as well as at other organizations.
The document discusses establishing an architecture governance framework. It recommends forming an Architecture Board to align IT with business strategy and goals. The Board would include business and IT stakeholders to provide market context, prioritize needs, and enforce compliance. The Board's roles would include developing architectural principles, reviewing projects, and managing changes. Next steps outlined establishing templates, principles, gathering current architectures, and defining business requirements.
The document describes the different levels of maturity for an enterprise architecture (EA) program. It provides details on key dimensions at each level including stakeholders, team resources, development processes, integration, and perceptions. The levels progress from initial, where no formal EA exists, to optimizing, where EA is highly mature and integrated across the organization.

Next, it explains that enterprise architecture aims to align an organization's technology landscape with its strategic goals. It provides an example of how enterprise architecture could help ensure compliance with new privacy regulations. The document outlines the typical products and deliverables of an enterprise architecture practice, including various types of models, assessments, roadmaps and more. It discusses the roles and responsibilities of enterprise architects, solution architects and technical architects. Finally, it emphasizes that enterprise architecture realization depends on the specific organization and is supported by frameworks, patterns and best practices.
Adam boczek 2015 agile architecture in 10 steps v1.0iasaglobal
This document outlines a 10 step process for developing agile architecture. It begins by discussing how innovation drives business and the need for supporting IT architecture. The 10 steps include: identifying business domains; creating a business entity model; defining a ubiquitous language; defining an initial process architecture; modeling core business processes; defining vertical requirements; defining bounded contexts; creating a BD/QA relevancy matrix; defining solution strategies; and defining building blocks. The goal is to develop an architecture that reduces risks, supports business agility, and focuses on simplicity through transparency, abstractions and partitioning.

The ADD is acronym of Assess, Design and Deliver. This is a model, not a framework, that describes how the ITIL consultancy delivers not dictates the consultants to follow. As of the ITIL is a best practices framework, its implementation will vary from organization to another, that keep the consultancy project success ties with delivery approach. So, I tried to put a holistic model starting with assessment through design till delivery.
Comparison of it governance framework-COBIT, ITIL, BS7799Meghna Verma
COBIT, ITIL, and ISO/IEC 27001 are frameworks for IT governance, service management, and information security respectively. COBIT provides IT processes, goals, and metrics for governance and was created by ISACA. ITIL provides best practices for managing IT services and was created by the UK government. ISO/IEC 27001 specifies requirements for an information security management system and was created by the International Organization for Standardization. While each framework addresses different aspects, they are complementary and organizations often use a combination to ensure IT supports business needs, services are effectively managed, and information security is maintained.
This document discusses architecture governance based on the TOGAF framework. It defines governance as ensuring things are done according to guidelines and objectives. Architecture governance specifically manages enterprise architectures at the organizational level, providing services to facilitate innovation while adhering to guidelines. The TOGAF framework covers governance areas like compliance management. It identifies governance roles in the ADM phases and defines a meta model. COBIT can also be integrated to assess architecture compliance with corporate policies and strategies. Without governance, risks increase that solutions may not meet requirements.
Understanding and Applying The Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF)Nathaniel Palmer
TOGAF is a framework for enterprise architecture developed and supported by The Open Group. It provides best practices for developing architectures and includes components such as the Architecture Development Method, reference models and a resource base. The latest version, TOGAF 8, focuses on aligning architecture with business needs and making TOGAF easier to use. TOGAF certification and training are available for individuals and organizations.
What is the Value of Mature Enterprise Architecture TOGAFxavblai
This document summarizes the key points made by Judith Jones, CEO of Architecting the Enterprise, in her presentation at the Telelogic Conference on November 4th 2008 about the value of mature enterprise architecture. She discusses how enterprise architecture exists within every organization and affects its efficiency and effectiveness. It is not optional. She outlines TOGAF as the industry standard architecture framework and how it provides best practices and professionalism. Mature enterprise architecture helps organizations get work done quicker, reduce risks, and lower running costs, demonstrating its business value.
The document discusses software architecture, including its definition, types of architectures, views, and documentation. It defines software architecture as the fundamental organization of a system, including its components, relationships, and design principles. The document outlines different types of architectures like business, technical, and enterprise architectures. It also discusses common architecture views used in frameworks like RUP, RM-ODP, and DODAF. Finally, it covers architecture documentation and modeling techniques.

It describes the terminology, composition of components, and relationships between the organization and external environment. Common frameworks for enterprise architecture include TOGAF, FEAF, DODAF, and Zachman, which differ in areas like customizability, technical documentation quality, and tool support. Enterprise architecture provides benefits like flexibility, aligning IT and business strategies, and reducing project risk.
Understanding business strategy cutting edge paradigmiasaglobal
This document discusses observations about a lack of understanding between business and IT strategies and how technology can provide business value. It notes that business professionals often see IT as a cost center rather than value generator, while technology professionals focus more on software than business needs. There is also a lack of strategists who can align business and technology at the enterprise level. The discussion aims to help participants understand how business strategy, domains, processes and enterprise architecture can work together to effectively meet business demands through agile and adaptive technology enablement.

Practical Enterprise Architecture in Medium-size Corporation using TOGAFMichael Sukachev
This document discusses establishing an enterprise architecture practice at a medium-sized corporation using the TOGAF framework. It outlines current challenges like rapidly changing business needs and a lack of architecture governance. It then defines what enterprise architecture is and why it is important to establish an EA practice to gain benefits like increased agility and reuse. The document recommends practical steps to get started, including selecting an EA framework and tool, customizing them to the organization, and implementing the practice incrementally. It emphasizes establishing principles, governance and stakeholder collaboration.
During last few years, role of Enterprise Architecture has expanded from technical to strategic in an Organization. This slide deck presents: Using Enterprise Architecture in your Organization.
The document defines the roles of solution architect, enterprise architect, and technical architect. It states that a solution architect is responsible for converting business requirements into an architectural design and blueprint for a solution. The solution architect needs input from stakeholders and provides outputs like application, database, infrastructure, and implementation designs. It also outlines the differences between the roles, noting that an enterprise architect focuses on enterprise-wide strategy, a solution architect focuses on delivering a specific solution, and a technical architect specializes in particular technologies within a solution. Finally, it shows how a solution architect contributes throughout the total life cycle of a solution.
Enterprise Architecture and TOGAF, Quick LookSukru Kocakaya
Enterprise architecture is the process and product of planning, designing and constructing an organization's operations from a business and information technology perspective. It involves analyzing an organization's current state and desired future state across business, information, and technology dimensions. The goals of enterprise architecture include aligning business and IT strategies, increasing business and IT agility, and governing technology decisions. Common frameworks used for enterprise architecture include TOGAF, Zachman, and DODAF.
The document discusses SAP Enterprise Modeling Applications (ARIS) and how it can help with business process management strategies for SAP. It covers the business process management lifecycle from analysis and design to implementation and monitoring. Key points include how the tool can help design flexible processes, close the gap between business and IT, and accelerate implementation projects.

This document discusses prioritizing the implementation of ITIL processes. It notes that ITIL does not prescribe an implementation order, as priorities will vary between organizations based on their unique situations. It introduces the concept of "ITIL Triage" to determine the order. A key part is assessing the current state vs. the desired future state outlined in ITIL. Interim states along the implementation path are also important to track progress. While ITIL does not specify a priority order, its "Planning to Implement Service Management" publication provides guidance to help organizations determine their own priorities.
The document outlines 10 traits of successful ITIL adopters: 1) Understanding ITIL's impact on organizational politics and silos, 2) Accepting that ITIL is an IT matter led by IT, not business, 3) Gaining commitment from senior management, 4) Acknowledging quick wins as the goal to benefit customers, 5) Keeping ITIL implementation simple, 6) Remembering ITIL is a process not a project, 7) Recognizing ITIL works with other frameworks like CMMI, 8) Treating adoption as a project using PMBOK, 9) Overcoming employee resistance to change, and 10) Learning to implement ITIL internally rather than relying on external consultants.

The document outlines Nelson Gama's dissertation proposal to integrate enterprise architecture (EA) and IT service management (ITSM) frameworks. It discusses the motivation and challenges of integrating TOGAF and ITIL given their different focuses on EA and IT service management. The research objectives are to develop an integration approach and evaluate how it can be maintained over time. The methodology involves a literature review of EA, TOGAF, ArchiMate, ITIL and related work on integration approaches. The proposal is to conduct an ontological evaluation of the frameworks and develop an ITIL metamodel to address issues like redundancy while integrating the approaches.
ITIL and ITSM will continue to evolve as information technology changes. While the processes and instructions may change, the conceptual knowledge and purpose of managing IT as a service to support business goals will remain. New technologies have increased capabilities and expectations, but the need for coordination between IT and business operations to effectively utilize IT remains. ITIL provides a framework to organize IT management accountability around the lifecycle of delivering services to meet business needs, rather than dictating unique processes. The focus remains on outcomes at each stage to determine service quality for business use.
Systemic Management of IT FunctionalityMalcolm Ryder
The search is on for what to call the coordination of management disciplines in the business use of IT. Short of the next big acronym, one argument is already more useful than most and is not even new.
The document discusses the relationship between ITIL processes and IT/business alignment. It summarizes previous research showing a positive correlation between alignment and competitive advantage. The author conducted research analyzing the correlation between maturity levels of 10 ITIL processes and 6 dimensions of strategic alignment. Key findings showed several ITIL processes correlated with higher maturity in certain alignment dimensions, such as financial management correlating with business value and governance maturity. However, the research did not find all ITIL processes influence all dimensions of alignment.
To be truly effective, organizations have to really understand and embrace the holistic concept of Enterprise Architecture. Focusing solely on the standards aspect greatly limits the benefits that an enterprise can achieve. Enterprise Architecture (EA) is the description and design of a portfolio of processes, applications, information and their supporting technologies that enable business strategy. It addresses the structure of that portfolio over time and its interactions through guidelines including principles, rules, patterns, reference models, standards, initiatives and governance structures and processes to use when building new IT capability.
Beverly Weed-Schertzer explains how ITIL, the most widely used IT service management framework, supports business objectives, enables changes, adds value to service risk management, and optimizes customer experience while being economical. Additionally, this explores the various trends in the domain and serves as a one-stop guide for all aspiring professionals looking to build a career in this discipline.
This document discusses security models, frameworks, standards, and methodologies. It defines models as abstract conceptual constructs, while frameworks are more directly linked to implementation and set assumptions and practices. Standards are published documents containing technical specifications or criteria, and help make processes more reliable and effective. Methodologies are codified sets of recommended practices and procedures. The document then outlines some specific topics that will be covered, including ISO 27001, COBIT, SSE-CMM, and security assessment and evaluation methodologies.
This document summarizes the top 10 traits of organizations that are successful in adopting ITIL best practices. These include: understanding the politics of implementing cross-functional processes; gaining commitment from IT management; focusing on quick wins for customers; keeping initial implementations simple; treating adoption as an ongoing process rather than a project; using additional best practices like a process framework and quality management system; and recognizing that the biggest challenge is change management with IT staff. The key is learning to implement ITIL in a workable, practical way through the skills of one's own organization.

1 question / minimum 750 words and APA style
we'll be focusing on the notion of human perception as both a biological construct and a design consideration. In what ways has HCI historically engaged perception in research and design trends? In what way is HCI now engaging our understanding of perception, and what are some of the major goals and directions for the combination of HCI and Perception?

2 question / minimum 750 words and APA style
the foundation of HCI/HCD research as it stems from human cognitive ability. The notion of how humans (users) think, perceive, and make decisions is critical to developing an understanding of how we can best design to fit their needs. In doing so, we must take into consideration a variety of individual differences, context-based choices on learning approaches, and how our understanding of memory and cognition suggest particular modes of design and insight for our development projects.
For your reflection this week, I want you to find 3 discrete examples of media/tech and break them down with regard to how they allow learning to occur, how they map interactions/tasks according to human cognition and learning models, how they use visual affordances to suggest more functional elements, and how (if at all) they encourage expertise development within their product/service. These examples can be anything from office software and video games to handheld devices and advanced machinery. Whatever you'd like.

WHAT BINDS WELL-FORMED IT SECURITY POLICIES together is a sense of shared beliefs, purpose, and urgency. Within your organization, you will achieve
that, in part, by establishing principles that create a shared vision, by empowering others to act, and by institutionalizing support processes. It’s important that the
implementation of IT security policies become second nature to the organization. That is, business processes should be designed with the controls needed to
implement and maintain security policies built in.
For example, consider the issue of emergency access to a server in the middle of the night. Gaining access may require going through a firecall system that will issue
an ID and password only when approval by the manager is obtained. In that way security policies are enforced and cannot be bypassed. .
This document provides an overview of ITIL Version 2 and its relevance even with the release of ITIL Version 3. It discusses the seven key components that ITIL addresses, including service delivery, service support, application management, and infrastructure management. The document also summarizes the various ITIL certifications and the processes covered within each component. Overall, ITIL is presented as a proven framework that provides best practices for IT management that can be adapted to any organization.
COBIT 5 is a framework for governance and management of enterprise IT that incorporates current techniques. It provides principles, practices, tools and models to increase trust and value from information systems. The framework has two domains - Governance and Management. It describes seven enablers including principles, processes, organizational structures, culture and people. COBIT 5 training from Syzygal helps professionals implement the framework and become certified assessors to improve IT governance.
The document summarizes upcoming changes to the ITIL framework in version 3. The new version aims to better align IT services with business needs and objectives. It will feature a core set of 5 books covering the IT service lifecycle and complementary documents targeted at specific industries and use cases. The new version is intended to make ITIL easier to implement and customize based on an organization's situation.
The document provides an overview and comparison of three major IT governance frameworks: ITIL, COBIT, and ISO 27001. ITIL focuses on IT service management and was originally developed by the UK government. COBIT is aimed at regulatory compliance and risk management. ISO 27001 contains information security standards and guidelines. Each framework takes a different approach, with ITIL emphasizing processes, COBIT control objectives, and ISO 27001 information security practices. Implementing the frameworks requires consideration of factors like organizational needs, budgets, and vendor expertise.

Inclusion is the Equity of Diversity 04.19.23.pdfMalcolm Ryder
In a society that contains multiple cultures, the ideas of multi-culturalism and diversity appear to be the same goal, but social behaviors have their own systems outside of culture that predispose inclusion or exclusion at any level of community. This description navigates and categorizes the constellation of terms and dynamics presumed to characterize equitable inclusivity in a heterogeneous culture.

This presentation is a distillation of language used to describe the scope and configuration of change managed at the enterprise level. Its goal was to find a way to drastically reduce the vocabulary necessary to model managed change, and to have the model be far more intuitively familiar.
Being simple-minded about complexity does not help to understand it nor to work with it successfully. This breakdown abstracts and compiles the many aspects of recognizing, creating, and managing with complexity as is consistent across many different domains of effort.
1. The document discusses decision making and the factors that influence it. It distinguishes between underlying conditions, which are the actual pre-existing causes and effects, and perceived conditions, which are the states recognized as factors that need to be addressed in making a solution or decision.
2. Decision makers are held responsible for the consequences of their decisions, which leads them to calibrate decisions to make the consequences acceptable. However, there is not always more than one justifiable decision to make.
3. The level of certainty in a decision depends on whether the underlying conditions prevent effective perception from guiding solutions. Different decision makers have different knowledge and opportunities to make the same decision.
We accept that everyone has Bias, and the study of that is exhaustive if not complete. But we continue to ask Why we have bias; the answer is that we need it.
Debating about design in the social media of business seems aimed at designing Design itself; but the results so far are not very persuasive. This is a significant knowledge management problem.
The document discusses a framework for managing organizational change. It argues that change will occur whether managed or not, so the purpose of management is to establish conditions where deliberate change is supported by continuous alignment of abilities to a targeted future value. It also discusses key influences on change success, alignment, and developing the capability to produce change when demanded by stakeholders. The overall framework presented focuses on managing change by cultivating alignment and responsiveness to demands rather than executing projects.

Performance is meaningless unless it also amounts to needed value. The activity that generates this relationship is visible in a hierarchy of logical dependencies. The vocabulary for this visibilty is already very common; here it is also fully disambiguated.
As opposed to execution, delivery, and other common terms of progression, "production" is a perspective that directly relies on designing continuous value-driven activity, not on achieving a single prescribed outcome. Enabling active capability is the management concern, and value creation is the experience.
Management's relationship to complexity is clarified in this short piece based on revisiting basic definitions. No special domain expertise is required but the argument applies to all domains.
A meeting is a group behavior, and the value of the meeting will depend on why people will do what they do with it. This framework explains the cause and effect linkages occurring within a meeting that actually is needed instead of merely held.
Not all workgroups are teams, and teams may not be enough to cover the work needed to meet requirements. This framework identfies the scale of workgroup and scope of requirements that distinguishes one type of workgroup from another.
Waterfall was never so much of a development management method addressing a customer demand issue. Rather, it is a build management method addressing a product management issue. See how.
The future of work depends on the future of managed change. This overview identifies why work, as arranged by organizations, is modified both in practice and policy but must become focused primarily on why the worker works.
The design and redesign of organizations today more regularly pursues agility, but very often it thinks that a given model will cause it, rather than discovering its best model from knowing what agility needs. This discussion surveys the underpinning archihtecture of agility, from which to cultivate or discover a site's appropriate model(s).
The purpose of organization is to influence effectiveness, and the logic behind that is practiced through the model of organization. This notebook compiles a common logic behind all models of organization.
Managed Change efforts overall still fail at 66% to 75% of the time. This means that the prevailing perspective on how to "make" change is defeating most other factors. Here's why.
The document contrasts authority and leadership. Authority relies on control and power over others, while leadership relies on gaining agreement and trust from followers. Authority can create conditions for leadership but having authority alone does not make one a leader. Leadership can emerge without formal authority. The document also discusses how authority and leadership can be confused, with authority sometimes being mistaken for leadership when a person in charge is successful. It provides examples of different leadership strategies like revolutionary, restorative, sustaining, and inspirational in relation to the existing environment created by authority.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

3. Seeing the Forest
Faced with massive increases in the instigation, scope and origins of change in business use of I.T., ITIL adoption
continues to be an idea that fosters confusion and debate despite its popularity.
In two opposing strategies of justification:
• The religious view of ITIL looks for, and argues for, “ITIL concepts”.
• The business view looks for, and argues for, “concepts in ITIL”.
One result of the differences is an ongoing inconsistency of references to ITIL blurring the understanding of
what ITIL’s own design promises. It is alternately referred to as standards, frameworks, processes,
requirements, models, strategies, and more, at the convenience of the speaker of the moment. But this
happens also at the expense of audiences not familiar with the speaker or exposed to multiple speakers.
The problem created by this inconsistency is that ITIL’s own perceived complexity discourages using it to tackle
the increasing complexity of mid-to-large size businesses being driven by continual rapid change.
Certified masters and practitioners are, of course, not discouraged. But what makes ITIL fundamentally useful
does not require an engineering level of control of particulars.
Business can understand, by seeing from a high level, how ITIL should intentionally affect something, and why
that intention matters. It’s more of a design level.
The high-level view is basically architectural, with the confusion of terminologies sorted out in a stable
perspective applied to ITIL .
4. FRAMEWORK
MODEL
A framework outlines the
intended relevance of efforts,
thereby providing the logic of
their inclusion.
A model outlines a known
type of integrated effort to be
regulated.
A pattern outlines the
repeatedly selected
attributes for an instance of
effort.
PATTERN
Standards: Frameworks, models and patterns resolve the frustration of unmet expectations.
As a structured library of knowledge, ITIL is seen differently by different interested parties, who often
interact in organized hierarchies of influence or responsibility. The general interest is to find guidance,
which supports decisions based on a status of being “consensus best practices”. Because of that, the
common desire is that specific guidance should be available and “effective” at each level. But, often in
discussions, there is significant ambiguity, if not debate, about what effectiveness is directly “available”
on which given levels – from “conceptual” to “practical”, and from “strategic” to “operational”.
Ambiguity and debate calls the value of ITIL into question, even as people want it to be their standard.
An architectural perspective offers a way to sort out the common confusion about expectations.
